FAQPage Schema
How do I find real-world code examples for a library or API?

Search real-world code usage patterns via GitHub and web search to locate production implementations. This Skill identifies actual usage in live projects rather than tutorials, prioritizes recent examples from 2025 onward when available, and produces structured research reports saved to docs/research/.

What's the best way to evaluate a technology before adopting it?

Research real-world implementations across GitHub and the web to compare how projects actually use the technology. This approach gathers code context and production patterns, helping you make informed decisions based on how experienced teams deploy the solution in practice.

How do I document my research findings on libraries and APIs?

Save standardized research reports to docs/research/ using a prescribed template that captures code patterns and findings. The Skill structures your investigations into consistent, timestamped markdown documents for easy reference and team sharing.

Can I use this for debugging by examining how others implemented the same pattern?

Yes. The Skill searches literal code patterns via GitHub and web tools to surface real production usage. This helps during debugging tasks by showing how experienced teams solved similar problems in their actual codebase.

What sources does this research cover?

Research draws from GitHub repositories and web search results, prioritizing real production code over tutorials. Recent content from 2025 onward is favored when available, ensuring you find current, battle-tested implementations.

Do I need specialized knowledge to run code searches?

No specialized prerequisites are required. The Skill handles precise literal code search via GitHub and Exa web search, then organizes findings into structured reports. You provide the technology or pattern to research; the Skill locates and documents real usage.
